    Genie HR54 For Any New Installation

    Waiting for my new install today & installer just called to confirm my request for a HR44. He asked why specifically a 44 as they are only installing HR54s now, 4k or no 4k tv present. I specifically asked for the HR44 because I have no 4k tvs & saw on the forum here that HR34s are still being...

    Returning Customer Advice Needed

    I'm moving in with my elderly father to take care of him & moving his tv service from Uverse to D* as ATT is offering us a good bundled promo to do so. I had a Genie setup when I was last with D* a couple years ago so I'm familiar with the setup with the Genie & the minis. Although we...

    Looking To Come Back To Dish

    Dish has again caught my interest due to their current no nonsense $49.99 promo which I think ends Oct. 30 but I have some questions for the members here whom I always value their knowledge & opinion so forgive my long post. As a background, I was a Dish subscriber when the Hopper first came...

    ESPN Channels Buffering

    Love my Sling TV but what's up with the intermittent buffering on the ESPN channels? I mostly see it on ESPN & ESPN 2, which are basically the 2 ESPN channels I more frequently watch. It started happening more frequently in the past week in my home location (Fire TV & Stick on 75 MBps stream) &...

    Goodbye Directv! It's been good but......

    I've finally had enough with the high cost of Directv & for that matter, the entire cable/satellite service. I have switched our service to Sling TV & rely now more on our already previously subscription to Netflix & Amazon Prime Video. Because I had both before, with the addition of HBOGO, OTA...

    The Wire HD

    Hbo last weekend released the acclaimed series in HD but Directv Hbo On Demand library is missing a few episodes. Does anyone know why this is happening.

    Roku/HBOGO/Directv

    First time posting on this side of the forum and already posted this question on the Directv side, but does anyone have any insight as to why Directv continues to prevent its customers from viewing hbogo through a Roku box?

    HBOGO on Roku - Now Available

    Why is Directv allowing us to view HBOGO on most major streaming devices except Roku? Now the Chromecast stick has gotten hbogo with Direct's support & still no love for Roku, what gives? Is it Roku's relationship with Dish? Anyone have any insight? Just seems strange that Direct supports other...

    Okay, Can We Just Use NFL Network's Red Zone?

    Not sure if others have noticed this before but I'm new to Direct's Red Zone channel; but they miss a few red zone plays & even touchdowns. I'm not talking about your 40-90 yard runs but some that develop from the 20 yard line. Case in point, today's Steelers Patriots game..... after thinking...

    Hardwire Network Connection To HR44

    My HR44 is right beside my modem & router but my installer told me not to use the wired connection to the dvr as I may get some conflicts (or something like that) so I've kept it to wireless. Previously I had my Dish Hopper connected directly to my router & tempted to do the same now. My...

    RC71 Remote Keeps Losing Communication

    My RC71 remote keeps dropping the link to my C41 client which is located behind my tv. When it does that it controls the tv still but no response by the C41 till I hold the mute & enter buttons down. Not a bad solution but now I have to be doing that every week or every few days. It first...

    Anyone getting duplicate recordings?

    Anyone recording EPL matches & related programs getting duplicate recordings on their dvrs? On Directv dvrs the program info is showing "No information available" hence if you set to record new episodes only in a series recording everything is recorded, even repeat programming. Over in the D*...

    Improved Picture Quality

    My eyes might be deceiving me but I've noticed a slight uptick in Directv's PQ this week on all my hdtvs. Did they upgraded something this week or it's just the atmospheric conditions at this time of year? My teenage daughter noticed it too so no guys, it's not new glasses (or lack thereof)...

    New Install Coming Up, Signal Strength Question

    Moving from Dish to Direct this weekend. Have never been satisfied with Dish's pq and have techs visited and said I'm getting signal strength in the low 80's and that's fine by Dish standards, or so they claim. My question is, what kind of signal strength should I expect from Direct? Direct's...

    This question probably been asked a million times but can't seem to find the thread/s..... I currently have a Hopper and 1 Joey setup but the most important feature and the reason why I chose Dish over Direct last year is the Sling Box feature as I have a kid in college and it saves me...
